3 years ago we found this Alstromeria on a discount rack. It thrived in our garden, but didn't bloom the first year because we got a hard freeze. The next year, one of our cats decided laying on it was the perfect spot. This year it is flowering like crazy! The message: You are beautiful and capable of blooming! It may not be in this season, but be patient and continue to grow!
I inherited this yellow bearded Iris plant from my grandma years ago. Every summer their beautiful bright yellow flowers remind me of my grandma and her beautiful garden.
I sketch when I am learning by listening. Otherwise I zone out and do not retain anything. By engaging other parts of my brain (and hands), the bored part wakes up. LOL
It has been many years since this combination of red poppies and blue delphiniums bloomed in a bed in my garden. In the meantime, other flowers have long since taken their place. The memory is preserved through this watercolor painting.
For the art lovers in Europe - my watercolor painting "Red poppies with blue delphinium" is also available at Art Heroes (free shipping in many countries).
Für die Kunstliebhaber in Deutschland - mein Aquarellgemälde "Roter Mohn und blauer Rittersporn" ist auch bei Art Heroes erhältlich (kostenloser Versand).
